WCCASA SPEAKS ON NONPROFIT SUSTAINABILITY AT LUNCH & LEARN

Homestead Manor’s Monthly Discussion To Feature Local CASA, Feb. 17

THOMPSON’S STATION, Tenn.—Homestead Manor will host Williamson County CASA (WCCASA) at its next “Lunch & Learn Something” on February 17, and invites to public to hear its directors speak to the best practices for nonprofits to achieve sustainability, build awareness and manage partnerships.

The Lunch & Learn—a monthly series for building creative skills and strengthening career paths—will take place in the restaurant 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. WCCASA Executive Director Marianne Schroer and Director of Development & Public Relations Danielle McMorran will lead the discussion and share insight on how they increased funding by more than 1,000%.

The pair will also cover how the organization impacts children and community, how they harnessed a rapid growth model, lessons learned and how to apply it in attendees’ business practices.

The professional development luncheon, held monthly, connects the community with business professionals for an industry-specific discussion on topics ranging from dressing for the job you want to etiquette when selling yourself. During the discussion, speakers share tips and tricks, trials, success stories and more, adding a fun spin on traditional “networking lunches.”

The $25 ticket for the Lunch & Learn series includes a lunch prepared by the Harvest kitchen, with options like a deconstructed pesto chicken salad sandwich and vegetable quinoa, or a Harvest garden salad topped with steak, plus handmade desserts and more. In conjunction with the topic and in an effort to share user experiences, the restaurant is asking for guests to tag #LearnSomethingHM on social media.

Space is limited to 25 available spots. To reserve a seat, go to www.homesteadmanor.com/events.

About Harvest at Homestead Manor

With influences that build on Southern basics but swayed by culinary traditions spanning kitchens across the world , Harvest at Homestead dishes are bold in both flavor and technique. The seasonal menus promote our chefs’ individualism and ability to turn a nostalgic dish into a modern rendition–creating rich, layered plates brought to life through fresh produce that our on-site organic gardens, and neighboring farms, yield.

The Harvest culinary team pulls from Tennessee culture–and from our inherited legacy of culinary generosity– to bring friends & family together over expertly executed dishes. This is the Marshalls’ take on a farm-to-fork restaurant that curates fine food from ingredients plucked straight from our backyard plots. www.homesteadmanor.com
